Following a long legal battle, American rapper Cardi B has won the defamation lawsuit she filed in 2019 against fellow American blogger Tasha K. Tasha, whose real name is Latasha Kebe, told stories related to $ex, drug$, and infidelity about the rapper in nearly forty videos beginning in 2018.
Cardi B was awarded nearly $3 million in punitive damages and attorneys’ fees on Tuesday in her libel lawsuit against celebrity gossip blogger Tasha K.
The award comes on top of the $1.25 million that jurors awarded on Monday, after finding Tasha K, whose real name is Latasha Kebe, liable on counts of defamation, invasion of privacy and infliction of emotional distress.
Cardi B sued Kebe in 2019 over several videos uploaded to her YouTube channel that made harmful claims about the rap artist. Kebe claimed Cardi B contracted herpes, was a prostitute, cheated on her husband, took hard drugs, would give birth to a child with intellectual disabilities and had engaged in lewd acts with beer bottles, among other assertions.
